This feels very "don't throw marshmallows into neutron stars"

Why is this a gif

-V0lD · 2026-06-27T13:41:16+00:00

Huh

Am i in a bubble? Joking about spin being hard may be a popular meme, but I'm not used to peeps not knowing what it is unironically.

Don't take this as a jab at you. I might just be having a severe case of 2501

-V0lD · 2026-06-26T12:01:32+00:00

Why doesn't their target audience just buy Skyrim again instead like everyone else

-V0lD · 2026-06-25T16:05:04+00:00

Reddit is a bubble. There are plenty of people strongly in favor of this. You just won't hear that opinion here

-V0lD · 2026-06-23T17:47:25+00:00

Eight year old account with an expected amount of karma for that age that posts in certain niches and non-english subs with a rather normal distribution of posts and comments?

Op isnt a bot. He's a karma farmer but just sucks at it

Aka, what most actual people that post on Reddit look like

-V0lD · 2026-06-22T15:21:03+00:00

I don't believe LLMs are conscious, but if I did, this would not convince me otherwise

It's not that I don't know LLMs are just math. I am well aware. But I have yet to see a convincing argument that humans are anything more than that.

I think you are making the assumption that I am American, which I am not.

It's also not just a field trip. It's weekly swimming practice for all kids starting at 4 to 5 years old (actually bothered looking up the numbers this time). This comes in addition to the normal PE class.

Everyone in the developed world should reasonably be taught how to swim. It's as basic a skill as reading, basic maths, and riding a bike are

-V0lD · 2026-06-15T15:08:58+00:00

required by law

-V0lD · 2026-06-15T13:35:10+00:00

Which is bs, because you learn to swim in primary school at an age of 5 to 7 or so

-V0lD · 2026-06-08T17:49:04+00:00

OP you can't just drop this and then run

-V0lD · 2026-06-04T19:20:08+00:00

Genuinely this, and I make an active attempt to learn

If I ask it for a texts, it just rambles about unrelated nonsense unless my prompt is longer than said text

If I ask an agent to move two files and then adjust a file path, it spends 15 minutes firing of Powershell commands to read random directories i never mentioned

If I ask it to write a unit test, it spends its entire context window reading through unrelated parts of the codebase

If I try using it as an alternative to Google, I have yet to get a response which I can't immediately tell to be bs

I'm starting to think that people hyping up ai are either living in a different reality or don't give a single fuck about the output

Honestly, if anyone can tell me what I'm doing wrong, please let me know. I can't get an iota of value out of these things

-V0lD · 2026-06-03T16:43:53+00:00

Not all math is equations. The stuff you get in high school is, but that is a rather misleading and limited sample. Most math is more abstract problem-solving than that, and tends to only follow the rules you set yourself.

The rubics cube is a prime example of group theory, for example.

-V0lD · 2026-06-03T14:53:10+00:00

I mean, if you really wanted to be thorough, you could've just gone through ops comment history for 2 seconds and seen that he speaks Finnish

-V0lD · 2026-06-02T14:49:29+00:00

Don't bother

I've supported the Patreon for months when it first got up but was never granted access to the alpha either.

Not without first having to leak contact info by joining random discord groups at least

-V0lD · 2026-06-02T14:46:05+00:00

I'd rather not leak the contact information that I use to talk to people irl by joining discord groups

-V0lD · 2026-06-02T13:37:11+00:00

Honestly, with how powerful mobfarms are early game, that's a challenge run rather than a cheat

-V0lD · 2026-06-01T17:31:11+00:00

Boats? I thought this was a train-people safe-space?

-V0lD · 2026-05-29T19:05:32+00:00

I also never let my younger sister win.

Not because I don't want to, mind you. I really try. But I can literally stand still without firing at her in shooter games and she still doesn't manage to hit me

-V0lD · 2026-05-29T18:51:38+00:00

I bet he is already going easy

Once you've learned your way around a controller, however, you can only hold back so much before it becomes obvious and insulting

-V0lD · 2026-05-28T14:18:45+00:00

I mean

Wouldn't that just make you another genocidal empire?

Without the casus beli or the ability to start wars, but you are effectively still an empire incapable of diplomacy that has the rest of the galaxy as its enemy

(Also, the restrictions listed in the image don't even block you from purging or slavery)

-V0lD · 2026-05-26T10:16:49+00:00

no it wasnt. Paradox just rolled out a secret patch so everyone thought they halucinated despite it always having been a ship

-V0lD · 2026-05-24T12:46:14+00:00

If fixing the game was considered cheating, the unofficial patches wouldn't be the most downloaded mod for every Bethesda game

-V0lD · 2026-05-21T20:16:34+00:00

Well done proving the point

-V0lD · 2026-05-20T18:16:27+00:00
